KOWON RIBFIT™

Not silicone — your own rib cartilage

RIBFIT™ is KOWON's autologous implant: your own rib cartilage, diced finely and shaped to fit your nose. Rather than putting something in, we chose to build it from your own tissue.

Our defining procedure

RIBFIT™ autologous rib cartilage

A graft shaped from your own rib

Instead of silicone, your own rib cartilage is diced and shaped — easing the burden of foreign-body reaction and warping.
